We are currently seeing a huge increase in people considering to install Linux because of the actions of both Microsoft and the autocratic U.S. government. Among these people are many who rely on creative software by Adobe or other companies, for which there is no comparable alternative with Linux support. If we can convince Affinity to provide Linux support for their programs (Designer, Photo, Publisher), a lot more people will likely ditch Windows, and a lot of people who are already using Linux will get easy access to powerful (one-time payment) creative software.

If you ever used Affinity/Adobe products and GIMP on any capacity over just trying to crop an image, you’d never say something like this. GIMP, despite its 3.0 release, is still decades behind those other programs.
GIMP feels like it’s made by software engineers for software engineers, trying to play catch up with the other softwares available that were made with designers and artists in mind.
